We know where Michael Phelps was around 1:40 a.m. on Tuesday morning:
The Olympic swimmer was about 84 miles per hour in a 45 miles per hour zone and, therefore, got arrested on suspicion of drunk driving.
But now we also know where Phelps was for the eight hours prior to this incident:
According to TMZ sources, Phelps was at the Horseshoe Casino in Baltimore. He arrived at 5 p.m. and sat in a VIP room, reportedly playing Blackjack and Poker.
The record-setting Gold Medalist left at approximately 1 a.m. was was drinking beer for most of the night, according to witnesses.
It must have been A LOT of beer because initial reports indicate Phelps' blood-alcohol level measured twice the legal limit at the time of his booking.
"Earlier this morning I was arrested and charged with DUI, excessive speeding and crossing double lane lines," Phelps Tweeted hours after news of his arrest went public, adding:
"I understand the severity of my actions and take full responsibility. I know these words may not mean much now but I am deeply sorry to everyone I have let down."
Over a decade ago, Phelps was also pulled over for drunk driving. He received a punishment at the time of 18 months probation.
In 2009, meanwhile, Phelps was caught smoking marijuana at a party on a college campus. He was quick to issue an apology following that scandal as well.
"You knowz mofo be rollin' up summa dat dank ass sticky-icky-icky and gettin' fizaded off the bubonic chronic right muthaf--kin' now." Uhhh, what Snoop said.
